The DEFIANCE Act aims to combat the harmful spread of non-consensual pornography created through artificial intelligence and deepfake technology. By allowing victims to take civil action against perpetrators and receive significant damages, this legislation empowers those whose privacy and consent were violated. The rise of deepfakes poses a serious threat to individual rights and dignity. Explicit forgeries can ruin lives and reputations, with victims feeling powerless against such malicious abuse. Enacting the DEFIANCE Act is crucial to restoring agency to victims and deterring further exploitation through AI-generated explicit content. This bill upholds core values of consent, truth, and accountability in an era where technological advancements have outpaced legal protections. Its bipartisan backing underscores the urgency in addressing the scourge of deepfake porn. By holding creators and distributors liable, the DEFIANCE Act defends the truth and safeguards a future where privacy rights are not undermined by malicious AI manipulation.
